Instead Of Suing In Court, Company Each Agree To Arbitrate Disputes
Company each agrees to finally settle all disputes (as defined and subject to any specific exceptions below) only by arbitration. In arbitration, there is no judge or jury and review is limited. However, just as a court would, the arbitrator must honor the terms and conditions in this Agreement, the Terms of Use, and the Privacy Statement, and can award the same damages and relief, including any attorney's fees authorized by law. The arbitrator's decision and award is final and binding, with some exceptions under the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. Company also each agrees as follows:
"Disputes" are any claims (including the definition of "claims" contained in the section Limitation of Liability and Disclaimer of Warranty above) or controversies against each other related in any way to this Agreement, the Terms of Use, the Privacy Statement, or Your purchase and use of the Product. This includes claims You bring against affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, independent contractors, telecommunications providers, or agents or other representatives, or that Earth Leaf Garcinia Cambogia brings against You.
If either Earth Leaf Garcinia Cambogia or You wants to arbitrate a dispute, Company each agree to send written notice to the other providing a description of the dispute, previous efforts to resolve the dispute, all supporting documents/information, and the proposed resolution. Notice to You will be sent to Your billing address that You provided and notice will be sent to: Try Garcinia – Earth Leaf Garcinia Cambogia, 2680 Chandler Ave Suite 7 Las Vegas, NV 89120. Company each agree to make attempts to resolve this dispute within forty-five (45) days of receipt of the notice to arbitrate, then Company may submit the dispute to formal arbitration. The FAA applies to this Agreement and arbitration provision. Company each agrees that the FAA's provisions, not state law, govern all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.
The arbitration will be administered by the National Arbitration Forum ("NAF") under its arbitration rules. If any NAF rule conflicts with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement apply. You can obtain procedures, rules, and fee information from the NAF at 1 855-632-5223 or www.adrforum.com. Unless Company each agrees otherwise, the Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator and will take place in the state of Your last billing address. The federal or state law that applies to the Agreement will also apply during the Arbitration. Company each agrees not to pursue arbitration on a consolidated or classwide basis. Company each agrees that any arbitration will be solely between You and Earth Leaf Garcinia Cambogia (not brought on behalf of or together with another individual's claim). If for any reason any court or arbitrator holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then this agreement to arbitrate does not apply and the dispute must be brought in court.

pilot program that explored
the use of SMS messaging to
remind patients with diabetes
of their regular blood tests,
Delaware Physicians Care, Inc.
(DPCI) is now piloting an SMS
system for pregnant patients.
Through this system, enrolled
patients receive reminders
of their pre- and postnatal
appointments along with messages that provide educational
information. Early evidence
reflecting the efficacy of this
more novel use of the SMS
medium, reported by DPCI,
shows improved patient compliance with clinical guidelines
that could eventually lead to
better health outcomes, lower
health care costs, and an
enhanced quality of life for
the patient.
Efforts by Intel Research
have spawned the development of the UbiFit Garden. Part
of the Everyday Behavioral
Monitoring Project, the application is designed to foster regular physical activity through
the use of mobile displays,
on-body sensing, and journaling. As an individual performs
physical activities, the UbiFit
Garden application displays a
blooming garden on the mobile
phone screen. The number of
flowers represents the user's
activity level for the week; the
type of flowers displayed represents variations in routine;
and if goals are met, butterflies
appear on screen. The user
wears a device that detects
physical activity; the information is then manually added
and edited using a journal

Although the empirical work
in this area is in its infancy, the
time is ripe for further exploration, which beckons for more
active HCI involvement. The
Society of Behavioral Medicine,
in an effort to advance work in
this area, has established the
Behavioral Informatics Special
Interest Group (SIG). As defined
by the SIG, behavioral informatics is "the study of the use of
technologies by patients and
health care providers as well as
the design, implementation, and
evaluation of behavior change
interventions delivered through
advanced technologies." Other
venues, including the Health
2.0: User-Generated Healthcare
Conference, are also catapulting
this use of advanced technologies in connecting patients and
mobile phone [ 3]. Results from
field studies have demonstrated
UbiFit Garden's effectiveness in
helping people maintain a more
physically active lifestyle, and
provide evidence validating the
usefulness of design in supporting behavioral change [ 4].
Furthermore, as numerous
mobile applications to support health-related behavioral
change emerge, so is a cottage
industry of sorts. The Apple

This lovely, flaky dessert is associated with Scotland. The Scottish shortbread recipe we're providing dates from the early 19th century and is still the classic formulation, with flour, butter, and sugar in the ratio of 8:4:2. The butter you make at home has more fat than butter you buy, and results in a lighter, crisper shortbread.
Short crust pastries don't puff up during baking, and are notoriously difficult to amalgamate into dough. Often, the butter and flour just don't want to bind. But homemade butter usually has residual water from the washing process, which commercial butter does not. With the higher fat and water content, making a shortbread dough with one's own butter is a dream — the dough comes together effortlessly. However, if the dough frustrates you, change the proportion to 7:4:2. For a fun variation on traditional shortbread, use rose water for the final wash of your butter: Your shortbread will have a lovely perfume.
8 ounces (2 scant cups) unbleached pastry flour
4 ounces (1/4 pound) butter, cool, but not refrigerated hard
2 ounces (1/4 cup) sugar
Optional: rose water for the butter's final rinse
Instructions: Mix the flour and sugar on a work surface, then dot with pieces of cool butter. (Think of the room temperature of an unheated Scottish farmhouse.) With your fingertips, incorporate the mixture until it resembles bread crumbs. Then using the palm of your hand, spread out the dough, forcing the flour to bind with the dough. Gather and repeat three to four times, until you can form a ball of dough. If the dough remains unworkably crumbly, sprinkle with 1 to 2 teaspoons of water, and knead again. Shape into a ball and let rest in a cool place, covered, for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. On a floured surface, flatten the dough into a disk about a finger thick, and mark off 8 wedges with the tines of a fork pressed clear through the dough. You can also add decorations with your fork, if you like. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet for an hour. (Traditional shortbread is sometimes first pressed into a wooden mold carved with the shape of a thistle.) The shortbread should not brown. When done, remove from the oven, cool on a wire rack, break into wedges, and serve with tea. Serves 4 to 8, depending on whether or not you can stop with just one piece!
William Rubel is an author and cook specializing in traditional cooking. He is also the author of The Magic of Fire.
What we now think of as the traditional Scottish shortbread recipe is the recipe that I published -- 4 parts flour, 2 parts butter, and one part sugar. Certainly, you will see on the internet, and in cookbooks, many variations around this ratio, but 4:2:1 is the modern traditional standard. I say modern because 18th century shortbread recipes were quite different. This said, many published shortbread recipes do include rice flour. Rice flour does not contain gluten, so it insures the crumbly "short" shortbread is, indeed crumbly. If you want to use use rice flour, though, think a little less rice flour would be better, say, 1/4 cup rice flour and then 1 3/4 white wheat flour. The frugal Scottish kitchen was a lean kitchen. By this I mean that the frugal Scottish housewife did not stock her kitchen full of ingredients extraneous to everyday Scottish cooking. Rice flour is not a standard ingredient in traditional Scottish recipes and was not a standard ingredient in an ordinary Scottish kitchen. Rice flour would have been a luxury ingredient, and my recipe is not a luxury recipe. I personally believe in keeping my larder as simple as possible. As an author, I try to write recipes using ingredients that we are all likely to have. As I do not stock rice flour as a regular item in my kitchen I did not want to introduce it into the recipe. As a matter of recipe writing philosophy, I don't like to specify ingredients that cooks are likely to have to go out to buy unless the ingredient is absolutely necessary for the recipe. In this case, as the center of traditional Scottish shortbread recipes doesn't include rice flour, I didn't introduce it into the recipe.
One should use 1 cup flour 1 cup rice flour

Everyone knows the dangers of distracted driving. But it can be a test of willpower to keep a cell phone out of hand and out of mind while driving. It's true that drivers of all ages indulge in this risky behavior, but young people are the more common offenders. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, 16 percent of all distracted driving crashes involve drivers under the age of 20. In 2011, 3,331 people were killed in crashes involving a distracted driver. An estimated 387,000 people were injured.
Technology triggered the problem (or at the very least, made it worse), and now it's being offered as a solution. Companies have developed products that prohibit or limit a driver's ability to use a phone while driving, attracting the interest of parents who are eager to safeguard newly licensed teen drivers. But is technology really the answer to distracted driving? Or is it akin to keeping kids in a fenced yard instead of teaching them how to safely cross the street? Here's a closer look at the tech-versus-teach controversy.
Technological Solutions on the Rise
The problem of distracted driving has occupied the mind of many engineers, including eager entrepreneurs, executives at cell phone companies and top officials at auto manufacturers. Numerous solutions have hit the market, from apps to factory-installed devices.
Most common are temporary "blocking" devices that silence incoming calls and texts and prevent drivers from having any interaction on their phones aside from GPS navigation and calls to 911.
Other solutions, such as Origosafe require that the phone remain locked in a dock before the driver can start the engine. After that, the driver can only use the phone via its Bluetooth connectivity.
Ford Motor Co. joined the crusade with its MyKey technology, which has been installed on 6 million Ford and Lincoln vehicles. MyKey seeks to beef up the overall safety of young drivers, and when paired with Ford's Sync technology, blocks incoming calls and text messages.
Six New Hampshire teen entrepreneurs have tried their hand at a solution as well. The Inventioneers created a prototype for a steering wheel attachment called the Smartwheel, which monitors driver hand placement. An audible signal warns when hands are in an unsafe "texting-likely" position.
Public Awareness Efforts
In response to the alarming number of distracted-driving accidents, education and awareness efforts have gone into overdrive. Students in driver's education programs learn about the accident statistics, and many auto schools offer students a chance to "text and drive" in a virtual environment to show how dangerous it is. Cell phone manufacturers, including AT&T, have also put their names behind public awareness campaigns.
As a part of its "It Can Wait" campaign, AT&T is the sponsor of director Werner Herzog's sobering documentary From One Second to the Next, which looks at the lives of four families shattered by auto accidents that involved texting. Now, 40,000 high schools plan to show the film to students. The media is also spreading the word using messages from such teen stars as Jordin Sparks.
Experts agree that these efforts are key parts of the solution. But opinions differ on which approach is more effective: relying on drivers to control their behavior, or controlling a driver's ability to use a cell phone.
Blocking Technology Ignores the Bigger Problem
Relying on technology to restrict cell phone access is not the answer, says Bryan Reimer, Ph.D., a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's AgeLab and the associate director of the New England University Transportation Center at MIT.
One problem is that technology is seldom foolproof, Reimer says. Teens who want to outsmart their parents will look for, and usually find, a way to circumvent imposed restrictions, he says.
But with an issue as serious as this, Reimer says the bigger concern is that technological solutions don't address the underlying problem. Parents will buy the tech products, he says. "But they're not looking at the long-term behavior. It may cure today's problems, but what about next week?" he asks. "Texting, as we know it today, may be ancient history 10 years from now. If we focus on technology as the solution, we don't address the broader issues involved."
Reimer points out that people prone to texting while driving likely fall into a bigger category: high-risk drivers. Take away their phones and they'll find a substitute distraction: tinkering with the radio, rummaging inside their bags or checking their appearance in the mirrors.
"They need to learn what's acceptable," Reimer says. The solution lies with feedback-oriented tools that examine overall driving performance, which includes cell phone use but is not limited to it, he says.
Reimer points to products such as DriveCam, an in-car camera and related technology that alert drivers when they engage in hazardous behaviors. The system provides parents with a weekly report, including a driving score and a visual clip of any risky behavior.
Parents Are the Needed Fix
Dr. Paul Atchley, professor of psychology at the University of Kansas, says parents, not technology, are the key to educating teens about safer driving.
"The area of the brain that's used in good decision making (the prefrontal cortex) doesn't mature until age 25," he says. "Until then, parents need to help children make good decisions."
Atchley suggests two steps for parents to help teach good habits. He recommends that parents use these in conjunction with conversations about the dangers of distracted driving, including reminders on the death and injury statistics.
First, parents should insist that teen drivers place their phone in the trunk of the car (or another inaccessible spot) before driving away. Many states prohibit drivers who are under 18 from any type of cell phone use, eliminating any need to have the device within reach.
The idea of stowing the phone in the trunk alarms some parents, who view a phone as an important device to have at hand in an emergency. Atchley explains to them that in most emergency situations, operating a phone at the wheel may further endanger an inexperienced driver.
"For example, perhaps they're being followed," he says. "They're stressed, their brain is full. Picking up a phone is an additional distraction. Instead, they can drive to a lit, safe area."
Even the reverse situation can be dangerous. Say there's is an emergency at home, and a parent's impulse is to immediately call a teenager who is driving. Atchley poses this question: Do parents really want their kids to receive upsetting news while they're behind the wheel?
Second, Atchley encourages parents to review cell phone records and texting histories. If they uncover times of usage that imply that the teen made calls or sent texts while driving, they should discuss the situation and suspend use of both the phone and the car.
"Tell your teen you're doing this out of concern for their safety," he says. "Parents are the technology to solve this problem."
The Tech Argument: Relying on Human Behavior Is Too Risky
Experts who advocate the use of technological restrictions feel that relying on teen drivers to monitor their own behavior is not a solid answer.
"Public safety is more important than a driver's desire to use their phone," says Motao Zhu, Ph.D., an assistant professor of epidemiology at West Virginia University.
"With technology as a solution, you know for certain they're not using their phone," says Zhu. Along with Jeffrey H. Coben, M.D., a professor of emergency medicine and community medicine at West Virginia University, Zhu co-authored an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association that advocates the need for technological solutions.
"Health care practitioners and safety professionals are quite familiar with the challenges of modifying human behavior," they wrote. And so far, education and legislation on the dangers of cell phone use are proving inadequate, some researchers say.
In an interview with the journal, Coben specifically called for the installation of a built-in system that would render any handheld cell phone inoperable once the car is in motion.
Another factor that's impossible to control is a young person's false sense of confidence in his own ability to multitask, some experts say. Teens may be fully aware of the danger, but assume that they can handle it.
"You can do all the education in the world, but when a teen hears the sound of a text message — maybe they're waiting to be invited to a party — it's extremely tough to resist," says David Teater, senior director of transportation strategic initiatives for the National Safety Council. He also believes that technology is the answer.
"It's standard practice to use engineering solutions to make a positive impact on highway safety. We've been doing it for years," Teater says.
Historically, technological advances combined with mandated use have greatly enhanced driver and passenger safety. Examples include seatbelts, rear-facing infant seats and child booster seats.
"It's not a trivial matter. Auto accidents are the leading cause of death for those between age 5 and 35," Teater says. "The vast majority are due to human error, largely distracted drivers. We know how to fix this."
Opinions on the best way to combat distracted driving may vary, but given America's passion for staying connected, the problem shows no signs of fading away.
Whether the solution lies in public education, parental intervention, technological restrictions or a combination of all three, drivers need to address the problem and implement a reliable solution for themselves and the young drivers under their roofs.

Van Zyl 'just needs to stick to game plan'
• SA legend tips local to win Cape Town Marathon
Irvette van Zyl's name looms large in the women's elite field gearing up to challenge for line honours in the Cape Town Marathon on Sunday.
Irvette van Zyl's name looms large in the women's elite field gearing up to challenge for line honours in the Cape Town Marathon on Sunday.
While the former Olympian is better known for her exploits over shorter distances, the added mileage should not prove to be an obstacle for the 30year-old Johannesburg resident.
She need just reproduce her form on marathon debut in 2012 at the London Marathon when she placed a credible 20th in a respectable 2hr 33min 41sec to come into the reckoning.
Factor in another top-class effort in the London Marathon the following year and she must be seen to be a possible threat in a world-class field gathered to mix it in Africa's first Gold Label Status event.
Backing her to go close is SA's legendary long-distance athlete Elana Meyer, who won gold at the World Half Marathon World Championships in 1993 as well as being a two-time world-record holder over the distance, not to mention winning silver at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics in the 10,000m.
"Irvette has the pedigree to make a race of it, and I wouldn't be surprised if she crossed the finishing line in first place," said Meyer, who is one of two ambassadors for Sunday's race.
"Yes, she's only been a marathoner for six years, but having said that, I feel she has the strength, stamina and required speed to more than hold her own.
"So many things have to fall into place, and from her side, things seem to have aligned themselves nicely.
"So, now, it's a matter of her staying healthy and ... come the starter's gun, executing her game plan as best she can ... and let the outcome take care of itself." Van Zyl was born to run.
Back in 2002, aged 15, she won her first major race when she saw off the rest to win the high-profileZev en heuve len loop 15km race while on holiday in the Netherlands, a sign of what was to come.
A champion through the age groups over varying distances up to 21km, now is her time to shine and show she can hold court with the finest marathon runners on the planet.
Victory on Sunday would rubber stamp that.
"I'm ready to go," Van Zyl said. "My preparations have been minus any headaches, that's always a big plus.
"As for the field assembled, it is one out of the top drawer.
"As for the racing part, being aided by pacesetters for the first time could see a time posted close to two-and-a-half hours."
Isabella Ochichi's 2:30:20 set in 2015 is the race record.
"I think things will only start developing once we are past the halfway mark.
"I would need to be among the lead group to stand any chance of gunning for glory."
Standing in her way is reigning champion Tish Jones of Britain, while Germany's Lisa Hahner and local hopes Lebogang Phalula (third in 2016), Zintle Xiniwe and Cornelia Joubert cannot be ruled out.
Ethiopia's Asefa Negewo defends his men's crown won in a record time of 2:08:41.
Reigning Two Oceans champion Lungile Gongqa will be eyeing a Cape double, but the likes of Elroy Gelant — Meyer fancies his chances on marathon debut — Michael Mazibuko, Lucky Mohale, Xolisa Tyali and Mbongeni Ngxazozo are all possible winners on what is predicted to be a fine day for racing in the Mother City.
MY PREPARATIONS HAVE BEEN MINUS ANY HEADACHES, THAT'S ALWAYS A BIG PLUS … AS FOR THE FIELD ASSEMBLED, IT IS ONE OUT OF THE TOP DRAWER Irvette van Zyl SA marathon runner
Going the distance: Lebogang Phalula, left, will be pushing Irvette van Zyl in Sunday's Cape Town Marathon.

Thank you and good night
Just to bring you all up to date, I will be leaving the LINY Area Local and thereby my position as Maintenance Craft Director of this Local.
I'm glad I'm leaving on a good note, my fellow custodians should see in this paycheck an adjustment. This is due to a payment for an agreement that was made by National in accepting a new version of the MS-47 Handbook. To keep this as short as possible it is simply based on management not covering all required custodial hours that are listed in the custodial staffing package (Line H).
There is a lot involved in this MOU, but the bottom line is that management must cover all the hours listed in the package. What we must do is be vigilant and if you see something, you must say something. What I mean by this is, if all of a sudden there are four custodians in your building that means they are trying to 'catch up' to those necessary hours.
The Postal Service (management) must provide us with a clean, safe and healthy work environment. If they need to send 3, 4 or more people into an office just before the fiscal year ends that tells me that the Service has not staffed that office appropriately for the entire year. They don't care about us until it might cost them some money.
Funny thing here is they are paying overtime, penalty time, every time and then they are going to have to pay us more when we show that the hours they spent were not on the necessary duties.
Ok, back to my reason to chew your ear off. I will be moving to the mid-Island P&DC and will therefore no longer be a member of the LINY Area Local. I am still APWU, and I am still Maintenance. You all have my phone number and I encourage you to call me if you have questions. You must keep your Local officers informed. We must all stay informed and not let management (or any manager) get away with violating the Contract.
Yours in Solidarity

APWU, Maintenance Craft Employee
Good luck and best wishes, Brother Mohring!

Is a mystery. So is love1929
